On those terms, I'd vote for the c310s to be replaced by the SenecaII (though I think the non-working YASim -set file (though not necessarily the FDM config) ought to be removed to avoid confused users. The T38 is in need of a little TLC I think, and since several other jet A/C have radar and in-air refueling capabilities I think it would be best exchanged with one of those... since it'd be bad form for me to suggest the Lightning, I suggest the Harrier :-) It's also special for the VTOL stuff of course, and is a modern(ish) jet fighter so covers quite a few bases... I would also agree with what appears to be the general consensus that a carrier-capable aircraft is added; for now I think the Seahawk is the ideal candidate. Finally(?) the new seaplane support would also be well worth showcasing with the excellent Beaver model(s); here I chicken out of selecting a candidate to be culled. OK, I'd possibly be forced to choose between the P51d and bf109; both are good enough to deserve their place in the base package, but represent a similar era and type. Obviously it's a great situation that even with all those models in the base package there is still a massive number of really nicely done models to discover from the download page (and even more flyable ones that can be updated by anyone with the will)...
